Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Coffee rehab and lever handles

For the two weeks I was in Tampa the office had free coffee with Keurig machines. This was only a problem in getting out of the breakroom. It had a stiff lever handle and I had to resort to putting the coffee cup on the floor, opening the door, picking up the coffee and then walking the long way around thru rows of cubicles so I didn't have to go thru two more doors. My left hand is so useless, can't even open it enough to get it around the lever sideways. And if I did succeed in that I would need my right hand to yank it off the lever. The past two weeks here in Sacramento, the lever handles aren't as stiff so I can get them opened with a coffee cup in my right hand. So far I've only spilled on myself twice through the drink hole in the cover. Free coffee here also, hotel also has 24 hour coffee. I'm in heaven.
